Bruce Springsteen - Devils & Dust (Columbia) [upcoming shows]

Betting against Springsteen ever making another Nebraska is as good as money in your pocket. Yet, there's still something equally as charming as it is disappointing about his low-key work in the years since. He's continued to draw from the same well that produced "Streets of Philadelphia," but has seldom been in danger of repeating himself. Devils & Dust's lyrical vignettes remain sharp while the music that backs them is more rooted in southern traditions than ever before. Though he may no longer command everyone's attention, he's still The Boss. - paul

I just heard this playing at the record store this morning, and I have to say that I liked what I heard. I'm not much of a Springsteen fan - my wife is the one who used to idolize him - but I might just have to pick this one up.

Check with your wife and see if she's got Nebraska somewhere. If not, it's a must own. This one, while good, can be bought later.
